The benchmark for modern graphical fidelity. Update 2.0 and Phantom Liberty raised the requirements, making an SSD mandatory. The dense city and NPC AI require strong multi-thread CPU performance. Path Tracing ('Overdrive Mode') is a feature reserved for high-end RTX 40 series cards with Frame Generation.

Performance Report
At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 120 FPS. At 1440p, all settings exceed 111 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 64 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 131% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2060 Super) for Cyberpunk 2077. The Processor N95 is 61% below minimum CPU requirement.
The Processor N95 sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the GeForce RTX 4090 still has headroom.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $1729. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 120 FPS, equivalent to 0.07 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 1080p low, the Processor N95 sets the ceiling at about 120 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 350 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 66% (FPS gap: 230 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 12/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your Processor N95 is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the GeForce RTX 4090 rendering potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 66% | CPU Limits GPU 61% | CPU Limits GPU 53% | CPU Limits GPU 45% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 57% | CPU Limits GPU 49% | CPU Limits GPU 41% | CPU Limits GPU 35% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 28% | CPU Limits GPU 29% | CPU Limits GPU 26% | CPU Limits GPU 35% |
We estimate the maximum FPS the processor can sustain and the maximum FPS the graphics card can sustain in each setting, then compare those limits directly.
Limit Factor formula: (stronger - weaker) / stronger. Example: if CPU ceiling is 200 FPS and GPU ceiling is 140 FPS, then GPU limits CPU by 30%.
CPU Limits GPU means the processor ceiling is lower. GPU Limits CPU means the graphics ceiling is lower. Balanced means the FPS ceilings are close enough that the gap is negligible.
A component can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, not generic utilization heuristics.

Yes, the Processor N95 paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Cyberpunk 2077 smoothly up to 4k achieving around 64 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 131% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 86% below the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $1729 ($80 CPU + $1649 GPU (Rank #77 Value)). Since the CPU is the main limiting factor, investing in a stronger processor will improve your framerates and overall value. For example, the Ryzen 9 7845HX is a great upgrade option (Rank #1 for value).
For Cyberpunk 2077, upgrading the CPU would have the biggest impact on performance. The Processor N95 is currently the limiting factor — the GeForce RTX 4090 has extra headroom that a faster processor could take advantage of. This is especially noticeable at 1080p where CPU performance matters more. CPU-limited at: 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1080p ultra, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p high, 1440p ultra, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k high, 4k ultra.
Cyberpunk 2077 does not currently support Frame Generation technologies like DLSS 3 or FSR 3. Your performance is based entirely on native rendering. If the game adds support in a future update, newer GPUs will benefit the most.
Cyberpunk 2077 requires at minimum a Core i7-6700 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1060 (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 70 GB (SSD) storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-12700 and GeForce RTX 2060 Super with 16 GB RAM. Your hardware falls below the minimum requirements for this game, which may result in poor performance.
These Cyberpunk 2077 FPS results are not arbitrary numbers. They come from calculations informed by thousands of real gaming benchmarks, and the typical accuracy range is around 10% to 15%. That makes them far more useful than generic FPS calculators that simply invent values without a benchmark foundation. Actual in-game performance can still vary with drivers, updates, RAM configuration, cooling, and the exact scene being rendered.
Performance estimates are based on synthetic benchmarks and hardware capabilities.
Results may vary based on drivers, OS, and background processes.
